We found out last week that we are having a little baby girl! Jack was totally right because that’s what he had said all along. I’m so glad that I kept all of Ella’s baby clothes and have them all organized—can’t wait to get those cute little things out again. Well, actually, I can wait because I want to feel more ready and organized before we welcome this little one. But still, we are excited! Here I am at about 17 weeks or so I think:

Kind of a weird picture with my hand I know, but I don’t know what the proper pregnant lady stance is when posing for a belly shot—hopefully I’ll figure it out next time!
Here’s a few Christmasy pics for good measure:
We used our fake tree this year because it was SNOWING in Eagar over Thanksgiving and Jack was not up to tracking through it to get a tree.
The perfect spot….
Making candy cane cookies for our shepherd night—these were VERY sticky and hard to do, so Mom did most of the baking, but I made the kids each make one for posterity sake of course. Ella “stuck” with it to the end though (pun intended) and was quite a happy mess!
Santa at the ward party—Ella told him she wants a “jingle bell” for Christmas and Conner was not having it—finally we have a classic “kid scared of Santa” pic!
More ward party pics:
Look—it’s us together in a picture!!!
Can’t believe Christmas is so close! We’re Christmas crazy around here so we’re trying to squeeze it all in before the big day—stories, cookies, songs, lights, traditions, gifts—it’s sort-of crazy, but I love it because it’s only like this once a year, and then it’s over! Merry Celebrations!
P.S. Ella’s birthday was December 12th—she’s THREE! And I want to put up her party, but my Mom took the only pics on her camera, so it will coming soon!

Yippee, a belly shot! You look great! And if you figure out the hand position for a belly shot, let me know...I never did figure that one out. :)
I didn't figure out the hand thing either. I had a friend who had her arms flung out to the sides because she didn't know what to do with them!
happy pregnancy to you. happy christmas to you. :)
YEAH IT'S A GIRL! That's great! Good thing Jack and Conner are already outnumbered :) It was great seeing you while we were in Phoenix. Thanks for having us over and looking forward to more belly pictures!
Ummm, it's been awhile since I have looked at your blog. I know shame on me! :) And to see the title, "It's a Girl!" I thought you were going to be able to adopt again. But I was WRONG.
Carolyn, my sweet friend, I'm so excited for you and the whole family! God is a Man of Miracles. It's so fun seeing you and your cute prego belly. Big hugs! So amazing!
Love you!
